Co-design in mental health policy

Mental Health Australia has produced a two-page document setting out the roles and responsibilities of all parties involved in co-design – government agencies, consumers and carers and other key stakeholders – to effectively co-design mental health policies and programs. The document, which has been developed with input from National Mental Health Consumer and Carer Forum members and Mental Health Australia members, encourages behaviours and attitudes that are conducive to genuine co-design partnerships.
